Comments - Late pregnancy exhaustion left little time for reading. I'm really not super happy with my overall reading for September, but oh well. October's not going to be much better due to a new baby. Hopefully I can finish out the year strong with November and December.

October's TBR Pile: I'm going to keep my TBR pile super light because of baby Q arriving last week.
